Julia Asen is a master pastry chef driven by passion who creates sweet works of art for life's special moments.
At the age of 19, she graduated from the HTL with a degree in sculpture and discovered her passion for art, painting, and sculpture even back then. Her subsequent apprenticeship as a dental technician took her in a completely different direction, and at age 25, her life was enriched by the birth of her son, Elias. Julia’s love of baking had been with her throughout all this time, and she continued to explore this passion. When she finally realized that this was her calling, she took several courses and completed her training to become a master pastry chef.
Today, Julia stands proudly in her own bakery, delighting and inspiring people with her cakes, sweets, and unique works of art. For her, every wedding cake is a very special commission. She therefore takes great care to address the wishes and visions of the bride and groom and is always open to all ideas—whether modern, traditional, or unconventional.

How did you get into your profession?
At age 19, I graduated from the HTL with a degree in sculpture, and even back then I had discovered my passion for art, painting, and sculpture. My subsequent apprenticeship as a dental technician took me in a completely different direction. Still, I’m glad for that experience, because that’s when I met my husband, who has been by my side ever since. Together, we have a son who keeps us on our toes and makes for a lively everyday life. A few years ago, I began combining my artistic streak with my love of baking. I quickly realized that this was my calling and eventually completed my training to become a master pastry chef. I was able to fulfill my dream, and today I get to treat people to custom-made cakes, pastries, and sweets in my own bakery!
What do you like about the wedding industry?
Weddings have a very special atmosphere, and I love being a part of such a special day and sweetening the celebration for the bride and groom with my cakes.
What trend are you currently following?
I don’t stick to just one style. I make a point of fully catering to the wishes of the bride and groom and am always open to all ideas—whether modern, traditional, or unconventional!
